Cash or insurance?

At 11 of 18 hospitals that publish insurer rates for this code here, the cash price is below the highest rate a health plan has negotiated, and at 4 it is below every plan's rate. If you have insurance but have not met your deductible, you usually pay your plan's negotiated rate, which falls somewhere in the "Insurers pay" column. Paying cash can cost less, but a cash payment usually does not count toward your deductible. Ask the hospital for both numbers before you book.

What it is

An abdomen and pelvis CTA uses contrast dye to show the aorta and the arteries to the gut, kidneys and legs. It is used for an aortic aneurysm, internal bleeding and blocked arteries.

What the price covers

The hospital price usually covers the scan and any contrast dye. The radiologist's reading is often billed separately.
